It’s always tricky to figure out what and how much to eat before a workout. For some guidance, check out this list of 5 pre-workout snacks.

The National Institutes of Health’s Office of Dietary Supplements has released two detailed factsheets to help you assess your supplements. The fact sheets (there is one for weight loss supplements and one for athletic supplements) include lists of common supplements and a verdict on whether they are 1) effective and 2) safe.

Leave it to the Swedes to bring us this environmentally conscious new fitness trend: plogging. Plogging is simple, pick up plastic waste while you jog. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can even do a few squats every now and then.

If you’re thinking about taking your fitness digital, consider some of these health and fitness devices. My personal favorite might have to be a bike helmet that “pumps your music, phone calls and voice navigation into your cheekbone, keeping the ear canal free to hear ambient noise”.
